Abstract: We study a class of representations of the Cuntz algebras O_N, N=2,3,..., acting on L^2(T) where T=R/2pi Z. The representations arise in wavelet theory, but are of independent interest. We find and describe the decomposition into irreducibles, and show how the O_N-irreducibles decompose when restricted to the subalgebra UHF_Nsubset O_N of gauge-invariant elements; and we show that the whole structure is accounted for by arithmetic and combinatorial properties of the integers Z. We have general results on a class of representations of O_N on Hilbert space H such that the generators S_i as operators permute the elements in some orthonormal basis for H. We then use this to extend our results from L^2(T) to L^2(T^d), d>1 ; even to L^2(mathbf{T}) where mathbf{T} is some fractal version of the torus which carries more of the algebraic information encoded in our representations.

Review text

The authors study a class of representations of the Cuntz algebra \({\mathcal O}_N\) of index \(N\) \((N= 2,3,\dots)\) acting on the Hilbert space \(L^2(T)\) where \(T= \mathbb{R}/2\pi\mathbb{Z}\). The Cuntz algebra \({\mathcal O}_N\) is the \(C^*\)-algebra generated by the operators \(\{S_i\}\) satisfying the so-called Cuntz relations with the adjoint operators \(\{S^*_i\}\). The representations arise in the study of filter-banks in wavelet theory [cf. \textit{I. Daubechies}, ``Ten lectures on wavelets, CBMS-NSF, Reg. Conf. Ser. Appl. Math. 61 (1992; Zbl 0776.42018)], but are of independent interest. Their analysis is based on iterated function systems, cf. \textit{R. D. Mauldin} [Progr. Probab. 37, 91-110 (1995; Zbl 0841.28009)]. Let \((\gamma_z)_{z\in T}\) be the automorphism group (= gauge group) of \({\mathcal O}_N\), defined by \(\gamma_z(S_i)= zS_i\) for \(z\in T\). Then the subalgebra \(\text{UHF}_N\) of gauge-invariant elements is given by \(\text{UHF}_N= \{a\in{\mathcal O}_N: \gamma_z(A)= a\), \(\forall z\in T\}\), which is a UHF algebra of Glimm type \({\mathcal M}_{N^\infty}\), see e.g. the authors' work [J. Funct. Anal. 145, 323-373 (1997; Zbl 0897.46051)]. The authors find the decomposition into irreducibles and also show how the \({\mathcal O}_N\)-irreducibles decompose when it is restricted to the subalgebra \(\text{UHF}_N\subset {\mathcal O}_N\) of gauge-invariant elements. Moreover, it is shown that the whole structure is accounted for by arithmetic and combinatorial properties of the integers \(\mathbb{Z}\). General results on a class of representations of \({\mathcal O}_N\) on Hilbert space \({\mathcal H}\) guarantee that the generators \(\{S_i\}\) as operators permute the elements in some orthogonal basis for \({\mathcal H}\). Hence this allows to extend their results from \(L^2(T)\) to \(L^2(T^d)\), \(d>1\); furthermore, even up to \(L^2(T)\) where \(T\) is some fractal version of the torus which carries more of the algebraic information encoded in their representations. The book is organized as follows: Chapter 1. Introduction; Chapter 2. Permutative representations of \({\mathcal O}_N\); Chapter 3. Monomial representations and integers modulo \(N\); Chapter 4. Cycles of irreducible \({\mathcal O}_N\) representations and their atoms of \(\text{UHF}_N\) representations; Chapter 5. Relations of finite type and sub-Cuntz states; Chapter 6. The shift representation; Chapter 7. The universal permutative multiplicity-free representation; Chapter 8. Some specific examples of the cycle and atom structure/the \(\text{mod }\mathbb{N}\) case; Chapter 9. Some specific examples of the cycle and atom structure/the \(\text{mod }\mathbb{N}\) case (where \(\mathbb{N}\) is a \(\nu\times\nu\) matrix with integer entries with \(|\text{det }\mathbb{N}|= N)\); Chapter 10. The general \(\text{mod }\mathbb{N}\) situation; Chapter 11. Concluding remarks. In particular, there are eleven figures in this book, which contains ten computer graphics. Some of them are examples to illustrate the tiling property in the plane, for instance. As references, sixty-nine papers are listed in total, including fifteen papers on related works done by the authors themselves.
